			<h1>F.INV Function</h1>
			<p>The <b>F.INV</b> function is one of the <a href="../UsageInstructions/InsertFunction.htm#statistical" onclick="onhyperlinkclick(this)">statistical functions</a>. It is used to return the inverse of the (right-tailed) F probability distribution. The F distribution can be used in an F-test that compares the degree of variability in two data sets.</p>
			<h3>Syntax</h3> 
			<p><b><em>F.INV(probability, deg_freedom1, deg_freedom2)</em></b></p> 
			<p>The <b>F.INV</b> function has the following arguments:</p> 
			<table style="width: 40%">
				<tr>
					<th style="background-color: #f4f4f4" width="150ch"><b>Argument</b></th>
					<th style="background-color: #f4f4f4"><b>Description</b></th>
				</tr>
				<tr>
					<td><b><em>probability</em></b></td>
					<td>The probability associated with the F cumulative distribution. A numeric value greater than 0 but less than 1.</td>
				</tr>
				<tr>
					<td><b><em>deg_freedom1</em></b></td>
					<td>The numerator degrees of freedom, a numeric value greater than 1.</td>
				</tr>
				<tr>
					<td><b><em>deg_freedom2</em></b></td>
					<td>The denominator degrees of freedom, a numeric value greater than 1.</td>
				</tr>
